Raw porridge recipe

Raw porridge is a perfect way to start your morning! It's great because it's super quick - think 4 minutes or less. You can use either whole chia seeds or milled chia seeds. Milled is best but whole will do.

I like to keep both whole chia seeds and milled chia seeds on hand. I use milled chia seeds in this recipe, but in many of my raw chia puddings I use whole chia seed.

PS: You can use either whole chia seeds or milled chia seeds. Milled is best but whole will do. "Milled" just means ground. If you have a clean coffee grinder that you use for nut and seed grinding you can mill your own. But you can buy pre-milled chia seeds too. If you can only have one type on hand I'd go for whole chia seeds.

Enjoy your raw porridge for breakfast and let me know what you think!

I was wondering if you could answer a kinda weird question. Do you know how to maximize the water absorption of chia seeds? I have seen them in some preparations (not mine) and they get pretty big and look like tapioca (clearish). When I make them, the seeds poof up a little bit, but they are still within their shells and are slightly crunchy. The almond milk does get gelatinous.

I made this recipe without the raisins as I didn't have any. I put walnuts, strawberries and blueberries on top and it was delicious! I also didn't put the cashew milk on as all I had was rice milk and I think it would have ruined it.
